E SIM is a super useful thing when you travel abroad a lot. Go to the kiosk, buy an ESIM and load it into your phone (I think my Samsung S23+ can add 8 at the same time) and set a plan for that card, usually for data. For calls and SMS to be on a physical, personal card, and for data to go through the new ESIM card.

Sounds complicated. 8 Sims?

It is not.
It's very simple🙂
And for countries that do not have roaming agreements, it is an ideal option.
Here is my example:
I have my personal number in my phone on the physical card, which is SIM1. Calls and SMS are set up through it. I bought a card from another operator, as well as a Ubigi service card if necessary, I would add another one, for example Greece or another European country.

And depending on where I travel, I activate a card for more favorable data transfer such as SMS2 for data transfer.

It is a little incomprehensible to people who live in huge countries, like you in Australia or who lives in the USA, or Europe where there is an agreement on roaming...
But even with the agreement, by far the most favorable option is to buy a SIM (or ESIM) card locally, and still use a lot of GB for little money.
The advantage of ESIM is that it can upload several ESIMs and then choose the one that is the best option. Only one ESIM card can be active at a time.

Yeah, I just use roaming.

Toosim toosim.com made my travels abroad so much easier with their eSIM service. I quickly purchased an eSIM for data while keeping my physical SIM for calls and texts. The process was fast and seamless on my Samsung S23+, which supports multiple eSIMs. It’s a convenient and cost-effective option for frequent travelers.
